Yep. Today, I’m comin’ atcha with a Luigi costume. For girls! (I’ll get to the boys’ version tomorrow, hopefully.) Trust me when I say that this is awesome, you guys. I was in my brother’s room, poking around, as is my way (I was actually looking for the iHome that he borrowed from me), and [...]

The One-Minute Organizer Plain & Simple by Donna Smallin My rating: 3 of 5 stars This is a great, quick read for those of us who find ourselves living comfortably in clutter, even while thinking in the back of minds that maybe we should try to get rid of that clutter. I have always loved [...]

My brother and I argued about this one, you guys. He originally suggested a Patrick Jane (“The Mentalist”) costume, but that turned out to be wildly expensive, and I couldn’t make it work. When I announced that I was doing a Martha Jones costume instead, he argued that a Martha Jones costume wasn’t distinctive enough [...]

I know it makes me a terrible feminist, and a terrible POC, and a terrible supporter of Palestine, but I do enjoy me some “Family Guy.” Come on, you have to give Seth MacFarlane some credit for basically selling Fox the SAME SHOW (Family Guy, American Dad, the Cleveland Show) three times. Although the Cleveland [...]

The other day, I put together an outfit inspired by Mister Fred Rogers of Neighborhood fame. He knows how to break-dance, you guys. It had to be done. But today I’m here with Eddie Murphy’s answer to Mister Rogers: Mister Robinson. If you’re an SNL fan, you know all about Mister Robinson. Or maybe you [...]
